There are two rivalry familes, the Montagues and the Capulets. Romeo is a Montague and Juliet belongs to the Capulet family. The two familes have had hate for each other since far back in time. On the other hand, Romeo, in the beginning of the story, is heartbroken and trying to get over his last love, Rosaline. It isn't until later when he discovers what love really is, which is when he meets Juliet. The Capulets hold a party at their house, and Romeo attends. Tyblat spies him there and wants him dead, but Lord Capulet tells him not to worry about it. However, the Capulets would not want Romeo and Juliet together at all, but only Juliet's nurse and Tybalt know about them.
After the party, Romeo and Juliet confess their love for eachother and decide they should get married, even though their familes despise each other. Romeo goes to Friar Lawrence to ask for him to marry them, and he does. He does this with the hope that it will end the feud between the Capulets and the Montagues, knowing in the back of his mind that it could also create a great commotion. Anyhow, the marriage begins a period of chaos in Verona, just how Friar Lawrence had prayed it wouldn't.
